NWS Houston/Galveston Release

An upper level storm system will slide into the state Monday aiding development of showers and thunderstorms over Southeast Texas as a warm front surges into the area late Monday morning.

Fast moving storms will bring a threat of severe storms and brief heavy downpours Monday and Monday night. Between 2 a.m. and 6 p.m. Tuesday the peak threat of severe weather - tornadoes and damaging winds - should occur as a cold front pushes slowly east through the region. This will also help to focus heavier rains and after Monday's rains and the early morning rains the risk of street flooding should increase on Tuesday.

The storm system is forecast to move through a little faster and the threat of heavy rain/severe weather should end Tuesday evening. Dry weather is expected by Wednesday morning.
